chapter 154: hilvy liu xing felt his way along the wall, slowly making his way until he reached the corner. though the room was labeled as a bedroom, according to liu xing's observation, there was hardly anything in it. of course, this might also be due to the low visibility. at this moment, even without using his listening skills, liu xing could clearly hear the sound of breathing. through sound positioning, he pinpointed the source to the center of the bedroom. liu xing turned to look at addison and xue jingliu. after a brief exchange of glances, the three decided to move towards the center of the bedroom. in a state of uneasy anticipation, they finally saw the origin of the breathing – a pale-faced black-haired girl dressed in white. due to the lighting, liu xing couldn't see the girl's face clearly, but he noticed she was holding a handgun! the three dared not move, afraid of startling the girl and triggering a potential attack. given the close distance, there was virtually no space for evasion. however, the girl remained silent, just watching liu xing and the others without any intention of taking action. after a while, liu xing thought it wasn't a sustainable situation. considering the urgency of the time, he tentatively communicated with the girl, "hello?" "hello." unexpectedly, the girl directly responded, using standard mandarin. this reassured liu xing; the girl seemed to be a friendly npc given the current circumstances. "what's your name, and why are you alone here?" addison asked with a smile. after some contemplation, the girl spoke, "if i remember correctly, my name is hilvy. i don't know why i'm here, but there's a command in my subconscious. the first person who sees me becomes my master." liu xing raised an eyebrow, and in his mind, only a few words surfaced – slave girl hilvy... both liu xing and addison wore a peculiar smile. in the dim candlelight, it appeared particularly terrifying, causing xue jingliu, unaware of the situation, to take a few steps back. liu xing exchanged smiles with addison, while xue jingliu, unaware of the situation, decided to pull hilvy aside, away from the peculiar duo of liu xing and addison. at this moment, liu xing suddenly remembered something. "oh, we seem to have not obtained the key to the iron gate yet." if the handgun in his hand counted as one item, then the key to the iron gate should be another item inside the bedroom. as liu xing spoke, hilvy nodded and took a rope from around her neck, revealing a key hanging from it. as the "key manager," xue jingliu naturally took the "original" key from hilvy. what a pity. liu xing felt that he had become increasingly unconventional since encountering hilvy. then, addison suddenly said, "by the way, if there are two items in each room, then the living room, as a room, should have another item besides the bowl of blood soup, right?" liu xing was initially puzzled, then uncertainly said, "there should indeed be two items in the living room, but do you think the note might count as one item?" "no, because fundamentally, that note should just be information, like the booklet in the study room that provided information about schaugnar fagern and dread hunter. however, it wasn't counted as an item. so, in this living room, there should be another item we haven't discovered yet," addison affirmed. liu xing nodded, suddenly thinking of the phrase "looking for a needle in a haystack." if addison hadn't brought this up, he might have overlooked the item in the living room. however, considering the size of the living room—just a table and five chairs—after a careful inspection by liu xing and the others, no item was found. "i can't believe it. could the last item be embedded inside the table?" addison said somewhat dejectedly. liu xing, hands on hips, looked up at the sky at a forty-five-degree angle and suddenly noticed something in the lampshade of the living room.
